Sandmannd Posted October 22, 2008 Share Posted October 22, 2008 So it's funny. I've been in IT for ten years and never really did any of these. I signed up for both of them this week. Anyone else have them? Want to share them out? You can search mine by email of s_e_hendricks at comcast dot net. FMrs are all welcome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DTro Posted October 22, 2008 Share Posted October 22, 2008 I was reluctant, then I said what the heck and did a FaceBook. Here I find out I'm one of the last ones to sign up I don't actually plan on hanging out there, but it's a nice tool to find some old classmates, friends etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sandmannd Posted October 22, 2008 Author Share Posted October 22, 2008 I agree. I did it yesterday and found 30 classmates I haven't talked to in years. Pretty cool system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SomethingFishy* Posted October 22, 2008 Share Posted October 22, 2008 I have a myspace page, I don't really care too much for it but it is nice to see that old friends are still doing well thru it. I had a facebook page but people send out to many random app invites and other garbage so I closed that page. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wookiee Posted October 22, 2008 Share Posted October 22, 2008 That's an easy fix on Facebook. There are filters to be set and such. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shortfatguy Posted October 22, 2008 Share Posted October 22, 2008 I am on both. They are nice for sharing pictures and keeping up with friends and family. I have also found some friends from the past that I had lost touch with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott M Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 I joined facebook when I was recruiting for a student group while in college. Prior to that I vowed to never join, but I gave that up for the sake of recruiting. Now it's good to keep up with old classmates and friends.Can't speak for myspace though. I'm not going there. One social networking site is enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris519 Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 I have facebook. A lot of my friends live 20+ miles away and it's a good way to keep in touch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoggs222 Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 I'm on both. I use Facebook more. The only reason I go to Myspace is the mobsters app that I play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cliffy Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 I got into Facebook about a year ago. I work with a lot of 20 somethings and it seems to be the most popular way for that generation to keep in touch. An interesting side note. Part of my job is to background new employees. Facebook and Myspace are a nice resource to see what your potential new employee might really be like. Cliffy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Facebook and Myspace are a nice resource to see what your potential new employee might really be like. Cliffy That is so true. I have heard stories from friends who were denied positions and even fired from jobs for what was on their myspace accounts. In a professional world, it usually isn't so good to have one.

Windy City Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 Wow,Sounds like I am the only dinousaur in the herd. I have never been to myspace or facebook. I just started checking out some things on youtube! I guess it is hard to teach old dogs new tricks, sometimes. LOLWindy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mnwild Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 Facebook is pretty cool site and its free unlike classmates. I enjoy using facebook because I can chat with people I use to go to school with back in the day before I moved. I actually went to a 15yr class reunion for Coulumbia Heights last weekend and it was more of a 19yr reunion because I moved from Heights to Blaine back in 1989.
